Interesting comparison but I don't see how getting one person (especially a fashion model) to make a comparison on 2 cars like they did could possibly be taken that seriously. As far as the ride being quieter, they're running different tyres as well, I would be interested to see how they go side by side with performance though. When it's all said and done it's only a matter of taste anyway, my personal preference is still the MK V and not just because I own one

I thought the test was pretty clever, and no real suprises. Russ the current 125kw would walk the 103 common rail in a drag, but the new active suspension sounds pretty flash for the curves! I'm not aware of a higher rated production diesel engine as yet???

Hey Greg, I thought it may have been a GTD as the guy refers to them both as GT TDI's, obviously like the fashion model he only knows what's written on the idiot card.
